I'm mixed on this trade. I'm not sold on Armon or Patty to be nightly contributors for this season. The pick is a risk as well. Should be a lottery pick, but those don't always pan out anyway (heck, Bayless was a lottery pick himself). So in other words, we gae up some talent that can help us now for a 'chance' at a better player in the future.

Patty Mills can't touch Bayless. I'm surprised they traded him because of his work ethic and ability to make things happen. Andre's career is just about over and we need good backups. Watch out for Bayless as a Hornet - I guarantee he will only get better and his stats will go up in many catagories. The Blazers often trade excellent players who have excellent careers with other teams.
